How do I reformat a dual boot drive in preparation for a clean install
I want to reformat my hard drive and do a clean installation of Windows 7 64 bit Pro. It currently has a dual boot setup with Windows XP/Ubuntu. I have two questions: I plan on installing this hard drive into a different computer. Do I do the reformat it while it is still installed in the old computer or should I reformat it in the new? How should it be done? Since it has a dual boot setup in the boot sector, what kind of reformat should I do to be sure there are no problems with the clean installation?
